This week: PGA Tour's Children's Miracle Network Classic, Thursday through Sunday, Magnolia and Palm Golf Courses, Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

First-round score: 1-over-par 73 on Palm Course.

Position: Moore is tied for 109th, 10 strokes behind leader Troy Matteson (63 on Palm Course).

Recap: What a bumpy front-nine for the Puyallup native, who had double bogeys on the second and fourth holes, but eagled the 532-yard, par-5 seventh and eventually got to even-par for his round at the turn. After that, he just couldn't get anything going – on the Palm Course where many of the leaders played their opening round. Thirty-three putts (tied for 119th) is uncharacteristic for Moore.

Tee time Friday: 8:35 a.m. PST off Magnolia's 10th tee.

This week: Nationwide Tour Championship, Thursday through Sunday, TPC Craig Ranch, McKinney, Texas.

First-round score: Even-par 71.

Position: Putnam is tied for 32nd, seven strokes behind leader Darron Stiles (64).

Recap: A real average start (two birdies, two bogeys), combining good ball-striking (hit 14 of 18 greens in regulation) with 32 total putts on the greens.

Tee time Friday: 7:24 a.m. PST off the first tee with Chad Ginn and Alex Prugh.
